ABSTRACT:
The apparatus can distribute and collect air. As a collector, a fan draws air from the proximal end of an elongated tube disposed in an air-environment. The tube is closed at the distal end but receives air all along its length through its air-permeable wall. The wall is more permeable to air at its distal end than at its proximal end. Wall permeability gradually increases from the proximal end to the distal end so that a substantially constant rate of air ingestion occurs at all points along the wall. A reversal of the airflow direction converts the air collector into an air distributor for distributing air evenly along its length.
